Summary
We have a unique opportunity for a dynamic and highly organised individual to join our Trauma & Orthopaedics (T&O) team as a Patient Pathway Coordinator. This is a key role within a busy clinical service, ideal for someone who is passionate about delivering high standards of patient care and administrative excellence.
As a Patient Pathway Coordinator, you will be the main point of contact for patients accessing elective hospital services, guiding them seamlessly through each step of their care journey.

Your role will be instrumental in helping the team meet performance targets and improve patient outcomes.
